A solstice saved!!!!

I didn’t write about the solstice yesterday because I wasn’t sure that it was going to actually “be.” However now that it “is,”  I can.  Does that make sense? I just finished reading a blog by a woman who lives in BC and celebrates the solstice by making a maze out of cedar boughs, coring […]

Thoughtless Thursday

OK if we can have wordless Wednesdays, I’m sure that we can have thoughtless Thursdays too…someone posted this video to my FB wall and I have to say that it is very cute.  It doesn’t require a lot of thought and there are times when we just need to “veg out” and enjoy something that

Deck the halls…..

…..or at least the streets. My husband and I decided to go to the Christmas market in the Distillery district yesterday.  Well, for want of a parking spot the trip was lost.  It was mobbed.  There wasn’t parking anywhere even in the many parking lots provided.  In fact there were line ups to get into

Procrastination station…

I am in avoidance mode. I know I need to start refining and polishing “the novel.”  This is where the discipline comes in and I have always been a slacker.  Fortunately NaNoWriMo has lots of lists and mentors and tons of other help to give you guidance and impetus.  The problem is, you have to
